So Weird: New Law In UAE Forces Nursing Mothers To Breastfeed Till Their Baby Is 2 Years Old Or The Husband Will Sue!

According to a new law in the United Arab Emirates, all nursing mothers
must now breastfeed their children for at least two years after giving
birth, or risk being sued by their husbands!
And this is all because their Federal National Council believe it is the
right of all children to be
breastfed up to the age of two, cos it is a duty and not an option
for any woman. But in a situation where a mother is unable to breastfeed
for biological reasons, the state would support her by providing a wet
nurse (ie a woman who breast feeds and cares for another woman's child).

Ever since the law became effective, several groups supporting new
parents have reacted strongly to it cos they are concerned that enacting
such a law would leave mothers facing potential serious punishment.
